USAGE LIMITED ONLY BY TIMELINESS OF NEWS CONTENT! => RUNDOWN <= Opening Teases/Theme Music/Intro Continuity . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:15 SEGMENT #1 ­ NewsWrap: The triennial Episcopal Church General CConvention -- the more-than-2-million-member U.S. branch of the global Anglican Communion -- confirms New Hampshire's Gene Robinson as the denomination's first sexually active openly gay bishop, and opens the door for priests and congregations to hold commitment ceremonies for same gender couples; the actions elicit praise from queers and their allies, a laissez faire attitude by most Canadian Anglicans, but condemnation by South American, Nigerian, Kenyan and Ugandan bishops, signs of displeasure from Southeast Asian bishops, and talks of schism between the liberal and conservative wings, prompting Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, the Anglican so-called "first among equals", to call a special meeting of the church's 38 regional primates for October in Britain; representatives of the 60-million-member worldwide Lutheran Church fail to agree on specific policies concerning the place of gay & lesbian couples (if any) within their denomination, deciding only to further study "issues of marriage, family and human sexuality in a manner appropriate to the needs of each member church"; the Vatican's publication last week of a document denouncing all legal recognition of same gender couples and any politicians who support it provoke criticism and comedy at pride events in Amsterdam, Vancouver and Montreal [written by CINDY FRIEDMAN, with thanks to GRAHAM UNDERHILL, REX WOCKNER, FENCEBERRY and GREG GORDON, and anchored by CINDY FRIEDMAN & CHRISTOPHER GAAL] [10:35] + "Camp" billboard [:15]. . . . . . . . 10:50 SEGMENT #2 - Transgenders have recently won civil rights protections in 3 U.S. jurisdictions, but the largest number by far will benefit from CALIFORNIA's new statewide ban on housing and job discrimination. Embattled Democratic Governor Gray Davis, who's counting on queer support in the face of a historic recall election against him in October, quietly signed the bill on the same day he put the final touches on the state's notoriously overdue budget, but he's yet to act on another bill to give same gender couples virtually all of the rights and responsibilities of marriage. With production assistance by PAUL JAFFE, This Way Out's BRYAN GOEBEL reports from San Francisco [with comments by sponsoring Assemblymember MARK LENO, the National Center for Lesbian Rights' SHANNON MINTER, and GEOFF KORS of the group Equality California, and intro music from "Pronouns" from "THE SISSY SHOW"/www.sissyshow.com) [5:40] + "TWO" I.D. by lesbian singing duo ZRAZY (intro'd by a snippet of their "Come Out Everybody") [:20] . . . 6:00 SEGMENT #3 - The journey of "CAMP" [IFC Films] began in 1974 when a 14 year old gay kid named TODD GRAFF spent his first summer at Stagedoor Manor Theater Camp in Loch Sheldrake, New York. In the summer of 2002 writer/director Graff returned to make the motion picture "Camp" about his experiences there. With a fresh and talented cast, a list of producers including Danny DeVito and Christine Vachon, the award winning composer Stephen Trask ("Hedwig and the Angry Inch") adding new music to his mix of show tunes, and a pivotal cameo by Stephen Sondheim himself, This Way Out's STEVE PRIDE says "Camp" is a queer must-see. He has preview clips & music from the film, and comments about gay kids, theater geeks and outsiders by writer/director Graff and "Camp" stars DANIEL LETTERLE ('Vlad') and ROBIN DE JESUS ('Michael') (with intro music from "Teen Freak" by DAVID BROWN and outro music from "Here's Where I Stand" by TIFFANY TAYLOR and the cast of "CAMP") . . . . 9:10 [www.campthemovie.com] Closing Continuity/Credits. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:35 TOTAL PROGRAM TIME. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28:50 ----------------------------Please note-------------------------------- Anyone with questions, suggestions, or *news stories* is encouraged to email Coordinating Producer Greg Gordon at TWOradio@aol.co ----------------------------- thanks! --------------------------------- STATION PROMO COPY: ANNCR: NEXT TIME ON "THIS WAY OUT, OUTSIDERS BECOME INSIDERS WHEN DRAMA TEENS GO TO TODD GRAFF'S "CAMP", AND CALIFORNIA CLARIFIES SEX AND GENDER IN A MAJOR ANTI-BIAS BILL...
